D&AD New Blood Festival 2026
Following the success of previous years, The Graphical Tree was proud to partner with D&AD in supporting the D&AD New Blood 2026.
Working closely with the D&AD team, we delivered a substantial proportion of the festival’s printed graphics, helping transform the venue into a vibrant showcase celebrating the next generation of creative talent.
With a diverse range of graphics produced across multiple formats, careful planning and attention to detail were essential to ensure every element was manufactured, finished and delivered on schedule. The project incorporated a range of specialist materials tailored for each graphic’s particular use – from large-format exhibition graphics and wayfinding signage to feature displays, hanging banners, window graphics and event branding.
The finished installation created a colourful and engaging festival environment, combining impactful branding with practical wayfinding to enhance the visitor experience and celebrate the incredible work of emerging designers from across the creative industries.
We’re always delighted to support D&AD on one of the creative industry’s flagship events, and we’re proud to have played a part in bringing New Blood Festival 2026 to life.
